Cultivating Immortality in a World of Chaos - Chapter 175

[Chapter 174: Third-order Earth Fire (Subscription Request)]

“I am just a mirror of fair trade… You give me the battle pattern, and I will pay you!”

Peach Blossom Pavilion, a retreat room.

Fang Xi opened his eyes with a faint smile on his lips.

He was ready to relax a little and become a knowledge carrier.

This is a win-win situation for the ‘lens holder’.

There are countless kinds of skills and secret techniques in the world of cultivating immortals, and there is always one that the other party needs.

And he only needs spiritual patterns and treasure patterns as rewards.

In this way, the higher the cultivation level of the ‘mirror holder’, the better.

Anyway, he was not afraid that someone in that world could destroy the “Treasure Mirror of the Heavens”. This was almost impossible.

Therefore, Fang Xi easily chose to give up Qing Lang and become the partner of Da Wu.

“Don’t worry too much about the things over there, just finish the things at hand first…”

He took out two jade slips and carefully copied the ‘Xunfeng Spiritual Pattern’ and the ‘Genjin Spiritual Pattern’ into them.

Then, he began to comprehend it carefully.

After a long while, Fang Xi opened his eyes again:

“The Way of War Patterns does have some merits!”

“At present, I have to make a choice… Should I engrave the ‘Xunfeng Spiritual Pattern’ or the ‘Genjin Spiritual Pattern’ on the spiritual weapon?”

It is not impossible for these two major spiritual patterns to be engraved together on a third-level spiritual wood.

But if this happens, the material will be wasted!

The magic patterns form the spirit patterns, and the spirit patterns form the treasure patterns, which are the core of the battle pattern system!
However, the Xunfeng Spiritual Pattern and the Gengjin Spiritual Pattern seem to have no place to combine.

Once this happens, it may temporarily create a powerful spiritual weapon, but it will no longer be possible to upgrade it.

Without much consideration, Fang Xi confirmed his choice:

“I am planning to refine a spiritual flying sword… Since it is a sword, I will naturally choose the ‘Genjin Spiritual Pattern’ to increase its sharpness…”

As for what kind of spiritual pattern will be needed to cooperate with the ‘Genjin Spiritual Pattern’ in the future, and what kind of treasure pattern will be formed in the end, Fang Xi currently has no idea.

After all, the Great Wizard is only at the second level.

The precious knowledge about the “treasure patterns” is only in the hands of the “Witch Kings” in the big cities.

“Alas… When will the Great Wizard die? Someone will kill him to steal his treasure… I hope the next person to kill him will be the Wizard King…”

Fang Xi complained, and then began to comprehend the method of combining the ‘Genjin Spiritual Pattern’ with the spiritual weapon.

With the previous experience of refining a large amount of magical instruments, this matter is not completely clueless.

…

A few months later.

Under the peach tree.

Fang Xi was drinking peach blossom wine by himself, while Ruan Xingling was sitting opposite him.

This woman still likes to drink green bamboo wine as always.

“This is the spirit stone from Danqi Pavilion last year…”

Ruan Xingling threw a small bag over, and there were only a few dozen spirit stones inside…

Fang Xi accepted it without any abnormality.

There is still a clear distinction between him and Ruan Xingling.

This is also the common philosophy of the two. They are both people who are devoted to the Tao and will not delay important matters over their children’s personal affairs, nor will they get involved in unclear matters.

“I wonder if the market for hiring Master Ruan has changed?”

After collecting the spirit stones, Fang Xi showed a hint of a smile on his face: “I want to refine a spirit tool…”

“Oh? What kind?”

Ruan Xingling became interested.

The next moment, she saw Fang Xi throwing a jade slip to her.

Ruan Xingling took a quick look with her spiritual sense and was a little surprised. She did not speak, but transmitted her spiritual sense: “Third-level spiritual wood as the main material? A wooden flying sword? Brother Fang, are you really going to give this job to Xingling? Why not give it to Master Ou Ye… the success rate will be higher…”

“I only trust Xing Ling…”

Fang Xi smiled slightly, and replied in the same telepathic voice: “What’s more… I don’t need you to refine it completely, just a rough draft, and then I will add the array pattern… Well, when refining, you must also pay attention to leaving enough room for adding array patterns in the future. The specific design drawings are all in the jade slip…”

“It seems that Brother Fang finally gained something from his last study of the special array pattern? Xingling would like to congratulate Brother Fang… I believe that his array technique can be upgraded to the middle-grade second level soon, right?” Ruan Xingling’s beautiful eyes lit up.

“No, no… I just had a little understanding of the formation and found a few magic patterns that can be combined.”

Fang Xi said modestly.

In fact, if he hadn’t gotten the formula for the ‘Genjin Spiritual Pattern’, even if he was given all the other lower-level patterns, he might not be able to combine them!
This is the limitation of talent and knowledge!
…

Two days later.

Bai Ze Xian Cheng, inside a third-tier underground fire room for rent in the inner city area.

Ruan Xingling watched Fang Xi take out a jade box. After opening it, a piece of spiritual wood shone brightly inside.

“It is indeed a third-level spiritual material, enough to refine a magic weapon…”

She took a deep breath and looked at Fang Xi: “Xing Ling always feels that Brother Fang is unfathomable…”

“No, no, I was just lucky…”

Fang Xi waved his hand.

In fact, he really didn’t need to open a shop to earn spirit stones, as the corpses of the second-level monsters in his storage bag had not been used up yet.

But there is no need to show off your wealth.

Ruan Xingling smiled slightly but did not pursue the matter further. She was a woman with a strong sense of boundaries and knew that if she continued to take the matter further, she might lose her relationship with Fang Xi, so it would be better for her to maintain this relationship.

She thought for a while before speaking, “It’s not easy to refine third-level spiritual wood. Even if it’s just a rough embryo, the few fire crows I raised are not enough for firepower. It turns out that fellow Taoist has foresight to rent such a fire room…”

There was originally a fire vein in Bai Ze Fairy City, which was then rented out.

Back then, Fang Xi had the idea of renting the Earth Fire Room here to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill, but later gave up the idea.

However, at this time, he and Ruan Xingling were both at the foundation-building stage, and the Changqingmu was only equivalent to an inferior foundation-building pill, so it was more than enough to keep it.

Moreover, this happened in the worst case scenario where Bai Ze Xian City had been monitoring the Underground Fire Room and even became greedy.

Fang Xi felt that things would not develop to this extent.

However, before refining the weapon, he still set up a formation as usual to conceal the situation inside the refining room.

Ruan Xingling walked around, observing the structure of the underground fire chamber.

Read the error-free version on 6Ⅹ9Ⅹ bookⅩ bar! 6Ⅹ9 book bar first publishes a novel.

The walls of this underground fire chamber are made of black rocks on all four sides, and the ground is covered with a layer of ice jade. Even so, the temperature inside is quite high.

In the middle of the underground fire chamber, there is a ferocious dragon head, and on all four sides are thick brass pull rings.

When the copper ring was pulled, the dragon’s mouth opened and a terrifying flame burst out!

‘The underground fire rooms in Bai Ze Xian City are divided into three levels: ‘Suzaku’, ‘Flame Dragon’, and ‘Fire Turtle’… The fire of the Suzaku is the most docile, and can be used for refining pills and tools. It is only open to the Baifeng Mountain lineage… The underground fire in the Fire Turtle room is relatively mild, but the temperature is not high enough, so it can only be used for refining pills. The underground fire in the Flame Dragon room is explosive and difficult to control, so it can only be used for refining tools. Otherwise, the terrifying flames will destroy the medicinal properties…’

As a second-level alchemist, Fang Xi has a lot to say about various types of flames.

At this time, Ruan Dan was seen smiling, taking out a few pieces of ore, putting them into the dragon’s mouth, and starting to warm the furnace.

…

The two stayed in the Flame Dragon-level underground fire chamber for more than half a month.

In the underground fire room.

The scorching heat turned into a heat wave, sweeping around.

Even though it was evening, sweat broke out on his forehead.

He swallowed a pill and looked at Ruan Xingling, and found that this Taoling Fairy was even more miserable than him. Her whole body was almost wet, revealing her exquisite curves.

“Brother Fang…it’s time to take action!”

Ruan Xingling’s voice was calm, her eyes fixed intently on the spiritual material in the third-level earth fire.

At this time, all the materials had already melted and were beaten into the ‘Evergreen Wood’ by her, transforming into a three-foot-long green sword embryo.

Many blank spaces were reserved according to Fang Xi’s request.

“The formation begins!”

The next moment, Fang Xi clasped his hands together and his magic power surged out.

The ‘Genjin Formation Flags’ that he had refined in advance were instantly erected, emitting a sharp aura.

Countless golden patterns come together to form ancient and mysterious symbols, carrying a desolate and ancient atmosphere.

Those are the four magic patterns that make up the ‘Genjin Spiritual Pattern’!

The magic patterns are engraved on the formation flags, and at the moment the spiritual weapon is formed, the four magic patterns are merged into spiritual patterns!

This is the optimal route chosen by Fang Xi based on his knowledge of formations.

“disease!”

The liquid mana of the ‘Qingmu Changsheng Gong’ was constantly being consumed. Fang Xi integrated the four major magic patterns and condensed them into a ‘Genjin Lingwen’ that emitted a light golden glow, and hit it hard on the evergreen wood sword embryo.

“Congeal!”

Seeing the evergreen wooden sword shake and seeing the wood texture carrying thin golden lines, Ruan Xingling seized the opportunity and also took the last step.

A layer of warm luster fell on the wooden sword, allowing the patterns formed by the golden threads to penetrate all the way into the interior of the sword.

The Evergreen Wooden Sword, on the other hand, has a restrained luster, and its surface seems to be covered with a layer of patina, giving off a warm sheen.

“Brother Fang, it is now that we must sacrifice our blood to the spiritual weapon, and from now on, our minds and spirits will be connected!”

This was a suggestion made by Ruan Xingling after seeing the plan to create a spiritual weapon in Fang Xi’s jade slip.

Among the weapon refining traditions she learned, there was a method of ‘blood sacrifice’, which required that when a magic weapon or spiritual weapon was created, the cultivator’s own blood and essence be used for sacrifice, so that it could be used as easily as an arm, and would be more powerful in combat. Even if it was taken away by the enemy, it would be difficult to refine it in a short while.

Fang Xi flicked his fingers upon hearing this.

A drop of dark red blood fell on the Qingmu sword embryo and merged into it in an instant.

“It’s done!”

Ruan Xingling finally entered a few spells to cool the evergreen wooden sword embryo gradually. A green magical hand flew out and grabbed the wooden sword.

Fang Xi looked at it carefully and saw that the long green wooden sword was three feet long, the blade was one inch wide, the main color was green, with wood texture, and the blade had a light golden halo. Just by touching it, he felt a sharp aura coming towards him.

“Generally speaking, wooden flying swords are known for their toughness, but Brother Fang’s flying sword is very sharp…”

Ruan Xingling wiped the sweat off her forehead and said with a smile, “According to Xingling, this sword can be ranked as a top-grade spiritual weapon among the middle-grade spiritual weapons. Moreover, the material is solid, so it can fight against top-grade spiritual weapons without fear of damage… I am looking forward to Brother Fang adding more array patterns in the future to upgrade it to a top-grade or even a top-grade spiritual weapon!”

That’s right… Fang Xi told Ruan Xingling that this sword could be upgraded to a top-grade spiritual weapon after the formation patterns were added to it in the future, and could even be comparable to a rare, top-grade spiritual weapon.

As for the changes in the treasure patterns after the spiritual patterns gathered, they were completely concealed.

“This sword was made possible thanks to Xing Ling’s help!”

Fang Xi bowed his hands to express his gratitude and directly handed over a bag of spirit stones.

Ruan Xingling accepted it without hesitation and asked solemnly, “I wonder if Xingling can give this sword a name?”
